03About

Slow-smoked over cherry wood for up to 16 hours

At The Iron Pig Smokehouse, we specialize in Texas-style BBQ, which means we use a dry rub and slow-smoke our meats over cherry wood for up to 16 hours. This creates a crispy bark on the outside and a juicy, tender inside. We also offer a variety of homemade sauces to complement our meats.
